Benefit would be to take the PM one step further by pushing the message right to the screen level and allowing *real time* back and forth? Sounds good to me; I've considered it before. So there would be three message options: regular post, PM and IM (single-user or multi-user like a chat) with the ability to see who's on SI at a point in time? ...Tim

Valueman,

Is there any interest in all the SI faithful standardizing on one of the instant messaging systems like AOL Instant Messenger or Excite PAL or the like? It would facilitate even better communication here. Suggestions/comments?

am I the only one who have no idea what you are talking about? boy, am I behind in tech times.

Changing subject, wasn't Starwar supposed to be the test for CineComm? Anyone knows the status?

Is there any interest in all the SI faithful standardizing on one of the instant messaging systems like AOL Instant Messenger or Excite PAL or the like?

I use LICQ for instant messaging (ICQ for Linux). ICQ can be found at icq.com . It is a great program and a lot of fun. Would be great to get some of us on each other's contact list.
